I recently saw the lyric “Who will be the king and queen of the outcasted teens” and there was a bit of the K Records vibe to that too. Although that drum fill is fantastic in “Teen Spirit,” there was a little of a K Records shtick.
Life would have turned out simpler and better had I been heard. We started to hang out, not that night but that week.Īnd then we went to the movies at the Beverly Center - me, Kurt and Dave - and saw “Truth or Dare.” As we are walking out, Dave says, “That movie is you.” I said, “No, it’s you.” You got me wrong, Dave.ĭid you argue to Kurt, Krist and Dave directly that “In Bloom” was a better first single than “Smells Like Teen Spirit”? He was bummed that his white Mosrite left-handed Gospel guitar had been stolen from the van that week. You ran into Kurt at a Butthole Surfers concert on May 17 at the Hollywood Palladium and exchanged numbers. Some aspects of the estate, Love says, have been a “legal travesty,” but it is held together with “spit, glue and skillful diplomacy.” She sued the two in 2001 over finances but settled, and they all appeared together onstage at Nirvana’s 2014 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Love, 57, has spent the pandemic in London making a new album, doting on her Pomeranian and “reading Hart Crane poetry.” When Cobain died from suicide in 1994, Love became a widow but also one of the stewards of his legacy, working with their daughter, Frances Bean Cobain, and the other Nirvana members, Krist Novoselic and Dave Grohl, now leader of the Foo Fighters. “Everyone had their day, and they’ve seen that day in you.”
“You gotta be nice to your elders,” Love says. Love says one of their first fights was when Kurt was rude to Stephen Stills backstage at a Honolulu show two days before the wedding. Her band Hole released its debut album, “ Pretty on the Inside,” just a week before “Nevermind.” She and Kurt married in Hawaii in February 1992. When her boyfriend became the biggest star in music, it was hard for Love to negotiate her own space. Times subscribers first access to our best journalism.
